We have measured the branching fraction and photon energy spectrum for the radiative penguin process b → sγ. We find B(b → sγ) = (3.21 ± 0.43 ± 0.27 +0.18 −0.10 ) × 10 −4 , where the errors are statistical, systematic, and from theory corrections. We obtain first and second moments of the photon energy spectrum above 2.0 GeV, E γ = 2.346 ± 0.032 ± 0.011 GeV, and E 2 γ − E γ 2 = 0.0226± 0.0066± 0.0020 GeV 2 , where the errors are statistical and systematic. From the first moment we obtain (in M S, to order 1/M 3 B and β 0 α 2 s ) the HQET parameterΛ = 0.35 ± 0.08 ± 0.10 GeV.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
